Third-party reviews

What customers like about Hisense WD5I8043BWF

  • A depth of 47 cm fits a narrow utility corner.
  • Washing uses 38 L of water per cycle.
  • 33 kWh per 100 washing cycles keeps power use low.
  • A baby care cycle is handy for families with a newborn.
  • Steam and Wi-Fi are both built in.
  • Six drying programs give plenty of control over dryness.

What customers don't like about Hisense WD5I8043BWF

  • Drying is loud at 72 dB.
  • The 54 L drum is small for big loads.
  • At 62 kg it is hard to move.
  • Combined cycles get a D class and use 266 kWh per 100 cycles.
  • There is no AquaStop protection against hose leaks.

Verdict

At 47 cm deep, the Hisense WD5I8043BWF suits a small home where one machine has to wash and dry. It fits a tight utility corner. Washing uses 38 L per cycle and 33 kWh per 100 cycles, which is easy on water and power for a family doing daily loads. A baby care cycle is a rare extra that new parents will like. Steam and Wi-Fi add handy options. Drying is where it falls short. At 72 dB it is loud enough to notice in a quiet flat, and the 54 L drum is on the small side. Combined cycles run from 49 min to 449 min, so plan your laundry day around them. It fits a household that mostly washes and wants the drying done when it suits.
